I'm tired of putting my Pearl Jam posters in a cheap 9.88 wal-mart frame, I want them matted and framed well, but I have heard I could be looking at 100 bucks a throw, any advice on where to go to get it done cheaply? Hobby Lobby? Michaels??

    Check out Micheals. They have nice poster size frames that are always on sale. If not every sunday they have an insert with the sunday paper for 40-50% for 1 product. You can get one frame at a time. I think I bought my poster frame for about $12.00.

    You can frame it yourself with wood or metal frames, acid free mats and materials and UV plexi for under $100.

    I've found that Hobby Lobby runs sales pretty often for 50% off pre-made poster frame. With matting, the most expensive frame jobs have been around $50 (unless you want to do double matting).
